This is of course not including the yearly Unity subscription, where Unity Pro costs $2,040 per seat (although they may have Enterprise pricing)

Absolutely ridiculous. Many Unity devs are saying they're switching engines on social media.

This has always been the risk.

Now, I'm a Linux user and really don't like Unity the game engine. Unity the desktop was cool, on a side note, even though I've never used it for long periods of time.
